Chassis #25 presented here is one of the cars built for Abu Dhabi, Ford WRT’s main partner in the World Rally Championship at the time..
It made its racing debut on the 2012 Rally Jordan (MERC), where home driver Khalid Al-Qassimi finished 5th. On home soil, he then drove the car to victory on the 2014 Sharjah Rally.
In 2016, the Fiesta was acquired by Briton Jason Pritchard, who competed in six asphalt rallies between 2017 and 2021 before giving it a complete overhaul of the engine and gearbox. He also took the opportunity to restore the car to its original livery, the one worn at the start of the 2010 season when it won the Monte Carlo Rally. Since then, it has only taken part in two demonstration events in 2024 (Rally 4 Passion and Eifel Rally Festival) in the hands of Belgian Xavier Baugnet.
